Very low fps on external Diplaylink monitor w 16.10 and 1.2.65 driver

I am having the same problem. On 16.04 it was bearable but on 16.10 it is nearly unusable. The display update is much slower than my typing. If I have a monitor plugged in then Ubuntu won't boot at all. I have to plug the monitor after Ubuntu is booted.

dmesg is showing warnings
